SWIM TESTING

Posted by PaulaF on May 14 2021 - 8:27pm

Message:

On Sunday, May 16th from 11:45-2pm, we have rented 2 lanes at the Brookfield YMCA (the pool is in the bubble, not the main building), and a BSA certified lifeguard, to complete our required swim tests for all water events with the troop this coming summer. We know this is right after the biking trip, but it was one of the few days available to us. ALL ADULTS AND SCOUTS attending water events (swimming, boating, summer camp, water park, ...) NEED TO participate in this testing.

There is a cleanup of the Great Brook at Hulton Meadow Park organized for next Saturday April 10 that I wanted to invite you all to. We will be planting willow and dogwood stalks and removing non-native vegetation from the banks of the creek. It will be supervised by the Housatonic Valley Association.
